there's one obvious way you don't tried yet.

Code: Select all

key == " "
Please try to read the tutorials in the wiki and learn some lua, because some day - if you ask such basic things over and over again - nobody will anwser because he know you don't really tried to learn and understand the matter.
Nobody really like to do the job for you.

I really won't to be the bad guy but ...
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=33904
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=33903
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=33901
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=33898

Four topics since yesterday was pretty much over the average.
Don't get me wrong. Your're free to ask here,
that's a forum - that's what it is made for - but I think at least two of the topics
were unnecessary if you search a little more in the wiki or via google.
I don't want to be mean :p

I agree with Larsii30. Do some research before asking questions. If you cant find the answer, ask. There might be a thread hidden deep within the internet, but just have a quick look through the first few pages of Google/Yahoo/Bing/Dogpile and see what you find. If no luck, check the wiki. If no luck there, come here or Yahoo! Answers or Wiki Answers or StackExchange. StackExchange are a bunch of idiots though. They know what they are talking about, but no matter what question you ask you'll get banned. Even for asking no question. I made 3 accounts and all 3 got banned. 2 of which I didn't even ask any questions on and it was only open like 2 hours. Hope this helps!
